ok are any of you actualy playing the build in games?
solitaire! hehehe bubbles is not fun
Sometimes miss a good arkade
ANyway I VOTE NO... You could let ppeople have the possibility to install them after flashing
Acctually, I myself I'm not playing, but my friends are (lol). Usually Bubble Breaker (I played for a while myself, record over 2500 on MegaShift ), rarely Solitare.
I don't play any games at all. And if I do, I do it in the bus, train... etc. = when I have nothing better to do.
Games
No, i dont ever play games, it will really free up some space if you exclude them.

Agree. Wipe them out. You can use the space for some useful stuff (Total Commander, for example)
replacing with more exciment game become more fun

Sometimes I play Bubble Breaker on toilette ...
Maybe remove them and make a *.cab for the guys which want them ...
dont need any games. i would also appreciate if office wouldnt be integrated in the rom, and only for installation with cab ... or second version with office .... or selectable which components of office can be installed. i only need excel for my drivers log, but powerpoint eats 1.9mb of device storage, but i never use that app.
I voted no since if im playing a game it will be a non standard game.
Only my GF will punish me if it is gone
My girlfriend plays bubbles all the time)
I think Games could be useful in case of Boringness.. But If u want to make it not build in on Prophet touch VIII. It's okay.. But please give a cab for us too.. So it could be usefull for people who like games.
I play it too sometimes..
no...............
no, remove them please and post the cabs
My son plays Bubblebreaker, so please keep it.
middle path
removing from rom and making a cab of those two games is the middle path i think..the best solution..

so, you vote for removing games?
---
i played bubble braker for a while in the beginning of my pda experience, when i rich a quite high score which i cannot rich again easily i quit playing.
i hate solitare. i prefer freecell in card games category.
if removing games don't open up much space it can be remain, but if you can do, separate *.cab files would be more efficient for all.
thank u gullum for your very nice hard work!
Please remove the built in games
I agree the built in games should be removed.
Guys I bet your kids and girlfriends are telling you they are playing games in your mobile:
- They are not playing solitaire or Bubble breaker
- They are reading you messages and checking up who you are calling these days.

what about the kids they would say daddys got a strange phone he had games previously now he is lying that the games are gone ,so next day if he gets a chance he would throw daddy's phone into bath tub ,
middle solutions is provide games in cab form somewhere so that who ever wants it loads it seperately But remove them from formal rom version ,which already has stability and other important issues to look forward to .

I had the intention to release for this app the VGA-WQVGA-QVGA versions as well, but this means a lot of work, since all the graphics have to be resized and the code to be optimized for these screen resolutions.
But...
But. I've released three apps so far (FakeBadge, Walk of Fake and Pocket Noise). In total, almost 8.000 downloads. And a single donation (for WoF). This means, i guess, people is not interested in my apps. Or, at least, not that much interested.
So, if my piggybank continues to stay empty, i'll go on to releas freeware apps. But only in resolution that fits my device (so, in other words, i'll share what i do for me): it's a nonsense to spend many hours working on other res for nothing, isn't it?
VGA version please???

Don't take it personally, but all three are really bling-bling or kiddy apps. Nothing productive, whereas Your programming skills could be put to use for coding something that's actually useful - for example, there isn't currently a single sms/e-mail app on the market that's finger-friendly, functional and has many options. So there's Your empty piggybank. I think if You'd write something that's actually useful, You'd get donations from at least hundred members, not 1. Think about that.

You could be right. Of course i don't take it personal, but what you say brings me to some thoughts. So, i say "could" for 4 reasons:
1. i know my apps are stupid toys. But why people download them, then? Eight hundred downloads in 10 days tell me that people like my apps, stupid or not. And download them.
2. How many "intelligent" apps have you seen for iPhone? Not so much, i think (if you've seen what i've seen). Despite this, the more an app is stupid, the more it sells on AppStore. And have you seen how many people here complain since such apps are for iPhone and not for WM? How many ask to port iPhone apps to WM? see how many did ask for iBoobs port, for example.
3. Some developers, here, develop "intelligent" apps. See, for example, Chainfire, Mitonioes, Blezalex, only to say a few. They should have become rich, if what you say is true. But i don't think so. See Mitonioes donation log for iPhoneToday: i think he is about 150 bucks: not exactely a big amount of money for such a long waited app...
4. Have you seen where G-Alarm is gone, and why? It was free, at beginning. then ageye has seen that, despite his efforts to make the app better and better, and despite the fact that it was one of the most (if not the most) downloaded WM apps, his pigybank as well was always empty. And so decided to make his app a pay one.
This to say that, for me as for other people that release free apps here: we do this without forcing anyone to give us a single cent, and saying that IF one likes the app, he CAN make a small donation to send his appreciation. But if people thinks that "someone else will donate, so why bother? After all it's free", this behaviour leads to the situation where almost the whole developer community has gone to iPhone, where apps are rewarded. Or, as i stated in 3rd post, one develops for himself, and if the apps is ok for you well, otherwise who cares? After all one does this for free and none cares to give him a sign of appreciation.
wow, it was a long OT. but i hope you understand why, if you could be half right, i too can be right the other half
cheers
So You did take it personally OK, just kidding. I see Your point... But I wouldn't go so far to call iPhoneToday an "intelligent" app as it (as far as I know):
1) Simply is a launcher, for which we have like at least 20 alternatives to everyone's liking,
2) It is an attempt to mimic an interface of a system on another system to look like the first system. It's like I would skin my ubuntu to be a mac. Pointless to my mind, no real productivity gain in that.
If You take a look at Iconsoft PhonEx for example, there is an app that has a really well-thought UI, options, intuitive usability etc etc, it's like a perfect example of what my point was, as it completely replaces the useless WM stock dialer and contacts. So I got myself a license, even tho it's 25$. I am willing to pay for great stuff.
G-Alarm does too many things (general mistake that every developer makes is that he thinks when his app has tons of features it makes it greater - it does not, rather on the contrary) to be a simple alarm/timer/stopper, for which 200-300KB is enogh, not 2,5MB.
For me it's all about:
1) Is there real comfort, usability or productivity gain in it for me?
2) Is it small and fast and doesn't have useless features?
For the rest of qualities, I really don't give a s..t.
But, if You are interested in developing something useful, take a look at this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520689. It has been half a year and nothing much has been going on. Like I said, there really isn't a good sms/e-mail app outthere
My point ver 1.5 - the third half

since you are the only one (out of 9 hundreds downloads) reporting this behaviour, i'd not call it a "bug". I'd not even call yours a "report", since it's similar to "doesn't work", that says nothing.
Anyway: i really don't know why your device locks up. Are you using the right version? For what i know it's a WQVGA device. Have you error messages? Do you hears sounds? Do you see something or nothing at all? What happens?
after clicking it , it gets to the main screen and hangs the device requireing a soft reset . no errors .
nice idea for a app but for now gotta stick with flaxbox ;-(
Was looking for such a fun app.
At first it works fine, but only at first as there are no seconds!
It runs fine after a reset, but is t able to start it up again after this first run!
I can press the button all I want but nothings happens no error message, nor no trace of the program in memory
Installed on HTC -HD2, storage card (do not want in in main memory).
Any idea's?
Note: Your Fakebadge app, also does not start after this app has run!
Note:2 Run first Fakebadge = ok 2nd =ok run PockedNoise = NOK
That's a realy strange behaviour, Pandor, but i cannot replicate it in any way, so i really don't know what's going on on your device... I too use the app from SD card, so that's not the problem.
I had a similar behaviour only once, when the app was still in beta: but that was because i had so little resources left (only 20% free memory) that the app didn't succeed to load all its resources and crashed. But i had it in memory (spotted via MemMaid).
So, if you have not it in memory, i guess the problem is somewhere else: maybe you've something running in background that leds to this. Don't know, sorry: as now you're the only one out of 15.000+ downloads reporting this behaviour
So I installed Memmaid, as the taskmanagers, did not show any programs running.
Here I saw that eighter Fakebadge or Pockednoise was remaining as a running process. Close the process and indeed it runs fine again!
I close the app with the Close button.
Note I have 200mb of memory left!
Just for those who don't know. Google Drive is up and running. Super cheap plans compared to other companies. 5gb free

Hell its nice. Throwing them 2 50 " month for the 25 gigs too, maybe they can buy themselves an ice cream or something

Don't use it... Read the t.o.s. Google can take your files and do what they please with them... Stick with dropbox and dev-host...
Sent from my PG06100
The verge did a in depth comparison of the tos and they really don't look much different than the others. It's just google has to use more general words as they have a unifies tos for all their services. They also state in the terms of service something like "we always acquire permission to use data uploaded from you publicly" or something like that. Personally its google.. If I'm willing to use thier other services with the same tos I don't obviously care enough to not use drive. But that's just me

Quick answer would be no. Google Drive is so new, that 3rd party apps haven't been created yet. I personally don't even think google has releases the API's for developers to create apps off it yet. (although I could be wrong)
Just have to wait a little longer I'm afraid

hi guys , i need to track my kids via a software on their mobile phone but i want this software to work silently ,, i donot want them to know they are being tracked ,,, i tried instamapper on my phone to test it and it is perfect but it is on the application menu and appears in notification bar
i want something like it to work silently and enables me to activate GPS via web command if inactive and donot appear on app. menu and to be controlled via web account other than their google account as i tried samsung dive and i donot know their google password they both have samsung galaxy s II
Nobody who wants to secretly track their children without their knowledge should really have children in the first place... It's also a massive breach of their privacy.

There are many good parrents that would like software like that. but the
Obviously themabda don't have kids, at least not teenagers. Responsible parrents don't let their kids run loose. Being a kid means testing your boundaries. As for the software I would like something similar. So far I havent found one. I did see one for rooted devices but still haven't been able to locate it again. It's somewhere on this fourm. I'll keep looking. It would be useful for locating a lost or stolen device also. The one I found before could turn on the cameras and record audio along with many other features.
As far as an invasion of privicy: As long as I pay for the devices and service I have no hesitation to track equipment that I own, no matter who is using it. If they want privicy let them buy their own. Of course if you're not doing something wrong why feel like you have to hide it?

Hi everyone
I'm looking forward to buy a new phone and i'm stuck between lovely lumia 920 and iphone 5
Can u guys give me a quick review about negative points of this phone? I mean in your own opinion.
And what are possible ways to install apps ,free or paid, on this phone?
Tnx so much
Sent from my E15i using xda premium
I am going to answer simply becuase I am courteous. The MS store is just like the Android Market or the iPhone app store. There are paid apps and free apps. Although most of the better stuff has to be paid for and the prices run from about 2 bucks and up.
Negative points? Hmm let me think...... It's not an iPhone.. Seriously, why would you want to be a sheeple? Nearly everyone and their mother owns an iPhone. Be original..
Seriously though our views of this phone are all subjective.. For example if you read some of the gripes posted such as the light leak which only shows from and extreme angle that you would never look from, or the creaking sound when you press on or flex the case which you should not be doing, or the shade of difference between the white of the display and the capacitive button back lights. These to me are all trivial things and just sounds like disgruntled buyer having remorse for some reason and now are picking the phone apart.
For me who has owned several models of HTC, Motorola, Nokia, and have had experience helping to program and update some Samsung devices, I have to say the L920 is the best built, fastest and smoothest operating phone I have seen yet.
My only beef with the phone which i have posted a thread about is it's lack of having a Flash Player. You can not view embedded Flash media in websites. To view Youtube you have to install a third party app. Adobe no longer supports mobile devices as of last year. So this phone was built with the anticipation of all sites converting to HTML5 and doing away with Flash. However that may be some time and until sites you like convert, you may not be able to view them on this phone if the have flash content. Is this a deal breaker? For some maybe. For me had I known this before I bought it, it would have been a deal breaker. But I am now stuck with it and will just have to wait till YT and other site convert if they ever do. The plus is that no phone created past last year will have the ability to view flash with out third party apps. So this may prompt sites to convert faster.
actually, to view Youtube video, you don't really need to install third party app (MetroTube for example), YouTube mobile site support HTML5 itself, just like VEVO, VIMEO, ... Just browsing YouTube via IE on your phone and enjoy your favorite apps.
About installing apps, there are some ways (easy to use):
- using WindowsPhone (WP) store app: find your app and choose install.
- using WP store (web version):
+ find your app, choose install -> app will be sent to your phone (wirelessly) and installed automatically.
+ download app, copy to SD card and install from your phone.
- unlock your phone and install any apps you could find on the internet.
